CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I travel a lot through Ananda Marga mission. As a monk I don't have material possessions. My belongings fit in one bag. Last trip was in Haiti were I visited the projects of AMURT. Next will be in Guatemala were I am starting a project for children. I like to tell stories and play ping pong. Of course kiirtan and meditation are the best yet it is not enough. Good vegetarian food that I often prepare and good company are also what I cherish. And I have almost forgot Italian language as it is since 1991 that I have been out of Italy besides brief periods of visit for legal reasons. I speak Spanish and I try to learn the language wherever I go. Generally I dress in the Ananda Marga sannyasi uniform that is orange from top to bottom. When they ask me why I dress in orange sometimes I joke telling that it is for avoiding getting lost. One time ...
PHILOSOPHY
Ananda Marga is my Mission and its basic philosophy is "Self-Realization and Service to Humanity". My "flavor" for it is to look for God in all. I look for that eyes that are pure and simple. I like to share simple life and simple pleasures.

Music, Movies, and Books
The Never Ending Story of Michael Ende has been a milestone book and movie. I like Irish music and folk music in general. I bought an irish wistle and I will bring it along hoping to learn some good melody. I have also a short guitar that is constantly out of tune, yet it make sound and I like it.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As a monk I look more for the internal then for the external. I have opened a school in Haiti and I have seen people change completely due to meditation.
Teach, Learn, Share
Meditation and yoga open the doors for many things and there is always scope to teach and to learn also. Kiirtan is the best sharing experience I can think about.
